Print out the config file path when fopen failed. It will be easy
for users to know where to create the file.

Send these two patches as a series with a cover letter.

Also what is changing - you can include what change: use the
same subject line in here.

The subject line can be improved to say more than fopen() failed.
Which file open failed?

The message can be informative about which file:
about which file.

e.g: pm: cpupower: bench: print config file path when open fails

While you are at it, fix it to use strerror() instead of calling perror()
followed by fprintf().


free(config);
return 1;
}
